Oh, I remember in late Dec. 2000 or early Jan.2001 after the internet bubble popped and PCLN dove to a dollar a share. Hurts every time I think about it.

Exactly... another stock I owned in my Hall of Shame was Global Crossing (GX).

My experiences with these stocks caused me to get away from individual stocks ... I now invest in low cost broad market index funds along with inflation protected treasury funds (composed of short/mid/long term maturities).

I hear you. But remember, the guy was a STARSHIP COMMANDER. You don’t get that rank be being a sleezeball. He’s the best of the best - we should have listened to him when he promised that Priceline would go big-time.
